Verus Coin (VRSC) VerusHash 2.1 Algorithm Mining With CPU

3, May 2020

Verus Coin (VRSC) is an interesting crypto project available for a while already that offers a hybrid PoW/PoS mode of operation, so you can mine and stake VRSC coins. The idea of the project and its custom VerusHash algorithm is to be mined with CPU and even though GPU miners do exist for the algo, they do not offer a performance advantage over a powerful processor. Near the end of last year Hashaltcoin FPGA mining support was made available publicly for the VerusHash algorithm with much better efficiency compared to existing CPU/GPU miners and that quickly drove away regular miners. This required a revision of the mining algorithm and the latest VerusHash 2.1 made FPGA miners unable to be used and brought back CPUs as the main choice for mining.

The preferred choice for mining Verus Coin (VRSC) is with CPU and the miner you need is called hellminer, or alternatively you can try with nheqminer. Hellminer is the faster, but closed source even though there is no developer fee it is limited to a single pool only – LuckPool, available for Linux and Windows, so you might want to go for it first. The Nheqminer miner fork (about 10-20% slower compared to hellminer) for VRSC is a bit slower in terms of performance, but is open source and available for Linux, Windows and MacOS and can work with all of the available mining pools.

As already mentioned there are miners for GPUs as well, but they do not offer performance advantage over CPU mining, in fact a multi-GPU mining rig might offer similar or slower performance to a higher-end processor, but with a much higher power usage. So while it is not very reasonable to mine VRSC with GPUs, you can at least try to see what your hardware is capable of and how it relates to CPU performance. There is a ccminer Verushash fork available for Nvidia GPUs as well as AMD Verushash miner available for AMD GPUs.

As far as performance is concerned, AMD’s latest generation Ryzen CPUs do seem to have some advantage over Intel processors, but in general the more cores you have, the better hashrate you can expect to get. Ryzen 3900X (12C-24T) does about 30 MH/s, while an Intel 6850K (6C-12T) does manage to get you just about 11 MH/s hashrate. As a comparison a GPU mining a GTX 1080 Ti does manage to get you just about 6 MH/s per GPU, so as we’ve explained it might not be very wise to mine VRSC with anything other than a higher-end processor, although it is possible to also use GPUs from AMD and Nvidia.

If you need a mining pool where you can try mining Verus Coin (VRSC), then you probably want to head on to Luckpool where most of the hashrate is currently located, alternatively you can try Lepool or Zergpool. The largest pool LuckPool has some nice features to miners such as awarding the block finder with a fixed reward as well as a hybrid solo mining mode where you still get rewarded even when not finding a block yourself. VRSC is currently traded on multiple smaller crypto exchanges such as SafeTrade, STEX, Graviex, AAcoin, Kuang Exchange.

Pascal Coin (PASC) Halving in About a Week (Block #420480)

24, Apr 2020

Pascal Coin (PASC) is not a new crypto project, it has been around for a while already and is getting very close to its second block reward halving (it is halving every 2 years, not four like Bitcoin). You can say that PASC had its prime in early 2018 and lately it seems to be loosing traction, even though the project itself has some really good advantages and features available. We also haven’t been following it actively for more than a year already, but the upcoming second halving of the block reward – initially 100 coins, currently 50 coins (20% goes for development, so 40 to miners) and going down in half to 25 PASC coins is what reminded us about the project. The next halving is going to happen in about a week from now starting at block number 420480 the block reward will become 25 PASC coins, so we have decided to check the situation with mining at the moment.

There are currently two different miners available for Pascal Coin (PASC) and the RandomHash Proof of Work algorithm that it uses – rhminer and nanominer. We have tested both miners on AMD and Intel platform and below you can find the results we got, do note that rhminer’s built-in donation is 1% while nanominer has a 5% fixed fee for RandomHash2 mining used by PASC. Do note that Pascal Coin is mineable only on CPUs, there are currently no GPU miners available for that algorithm and coin as far as we are aware.

rhminer 2.3 version 3:
AMD Ryzen 3900X (12C-24T) – 410 KH/s
Intel Core i7 6850K (6C-12T) – 163 KH/s

nanominer v1.8.2:
AMD Ryzen 3900X (12C-24T) – 363 KH/s
Intel Core i7 6850K (6C-12T) – 110 KH/s

The AMD platform has double the CPU cores, so it is not surprising that it performs faster, but it also seems that the RandomHash algorithm that Pascal Coin (PASC) uses does manage to perform a bit better on the latest generation of AMD Ryzen CPUs. Out of the two miners the nanominer is apparently not as well optimized as rhminer and the 4 percent extra dev fee it has makes the rhminer as the preferred choice for sure. Nanominer also performs worse on Intel as compared to AMD based on the performance we see in our comparison, but still rhminer is giving roughly 50 KH/s extra performance on both platforms and has significantly lower dev fee. You can trade any mined Pascal (PASC) coins on TOKOK and qTrade crypto exchanges.

RandomX Mining On MacOS Using XMRig MacOS Build

16, Apr 2020

Apple’s MacOS computers aren’t really a popular choice as far as GPU mining is concerned, but for CPU mining they may still be usable… if you manage to find a miner with a MacOS binary build or if you manage to compile it yourself. So how about mining RandomX, a variation of the RandomX algorithm? You will quickly find out that neither of the popular RandomX CPU miners such as XMRig, SRBMiner-Multi and XMR-STAK-RX have a MacOS binary available and you may have some hard time compiling one yourself. Fortunately there is a solution available, at least for XMRig where a user has made a MacOS build of the latest XMRig 5.11.0 that may be exactly what you need if you have an Apple computer you ant to try CPU mining with.
